How it works

From discovery to launch, in three steps.

LaunchRoster helps you organize the work. It does not promise rankings, votes or guaranteed traffic.

01

Choose the right surfaces

Filter by product type, stage, cost and effort. Ignore platforms that do not match your current launch.

02

Prepare consistent copy

Turn your value proposition into a tagline, short description and maker introduction you can edit.

03

Track the next useful move

Keep your launch sequence focused: feedback channels first, evergreen listings next, and big launch days last.
